Justice Studies Diploma

A two year diploma covering criminology and criminal justice, criminal law and procedure, policing and corrections, investigation and evidence, ethics in justice work, and a supervised practicum in a justice setting.

Justice studies feeds the civilian side of the system, which is where the accessible employment actually sits: corrections, community justice, security, investigations and court administration. The practicum places students inside those organisations, which matters in a sector that hires on demonstrated suitability.
